Fuck me. This is amazing. Congrats to those going on today’s adventure, and thank you for documenting it for the rest of us!!

@taysavestheday JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA

Picking up a thread from Slack: That YouTube link + Sarah taking pictures of @taysavestheday points to the possibility of us not knowing if we’re talking to the real @taysavestheday or a doppleganger. Even now. :-

Welp.

Remy, I think I love you.

Looks like my meeting finished just in time…

Yeah, except @bcbishop, didn’t she first present herself by saying “help me help you“?

Yes! And us falling deeper into The Lust Experience is exactly that. (Ultimately don’t we all want to be more engaged, active, immersed, and invested?)

I’d love to believe she really is just trying to help us out.

That’s the important distinction, though @nothenrygale; she’s not here to help us. She’s here to help her bosses. It’s just that us becoming more engaged with LUST — which is something we all want — is how that happens.

It seems feelings about our new friend @joycecarlberg break down into two different buckets:

1: She’s straightforward and telling it like it is.

2: She’s lying and inconsistent and will somehow betray us.

The paranoia is justified, and we’ve all been manipulated before. But let’s look at what we actually know about Joyce.

You have proven my hypothesis that their anxieties were completely unfounded as you would not and did not see the broad forest from the trees.

Let’s not use so broad a brush here, @joycecarlberg – not everyone is quite so blind. I think your initial group of number-selectors see things quite clearly.

As for others… well as I’ve said before,…[Read more]

I dig this theory @superstar, but I suspect the truth may be even simpler.

We are, as we have always been, The Participants. Up until now, we’ve been mostly moderating ourselves (thanks to @thebuz and @thegilded) with occasional input from TPTB.

Only problem is: the data the OSDM has been collecting has been tainted. And after The Red Room…[Read more]

Ruffling feathers as promised. Joyce always tells it like it is.

(@macbethinabathtub: Not sure about @kevin and @wanda102, but I saw nothing with my letter when putting a flashlight to it or examining it for any kind of invisible ink or other stuff.)

Damn, @coryphella, nice catch.

I guess the question now becomes why they echo heaven, hell, and purgatory. Is it because there’s an actual religious connection here — or is it because The OSDM (and HCDI) know that those three states will resonate with people on an instinctual level? They’re nothing if not masters of preying upon our existing te…[Read more]

@thebuz Character List updated with info from last night; should be in yer inbox.

@kevin For the sake of completeness, here’s my letter and envelope. If we’re looking for differences that are hiding out in the open, how’s this for a crazy one: it appears that not all the letters were folded the same way. (????)

@daela

Oh shit. OK. So is the implication here that some among us may have been so contacted, and are keeping it a secret? Or was this just Joyce covering all her bases?

Honestly, it’s hard to say. But it infers that they think it’s a possibility.
